Photo evidence of how swanky brands stack up against drugstore gems when it comes to fighting wrinkles

StriVectin-SD review: "This cream was more convenient to use. I could use it every day after facial cleaning and moisturizing application, and I could better control application by squeezing product from the tube. I'd continue to use it and recommend it to others seeking a more youthful appearance in the eye area."

Olay review: "This product required extra thought and planning in order to adhere to the three-times-a-week application restriction. In addition, the surface area of the derma pods were larger than my surrounding eye area. Therefore, using the pod was cumbersome."

Results: "I think the results are noticeably different. The area surrounding the right eye appeared smoother with zero puffiness and looked more healthy and youthful than the left eye area. My left eye area still revealed deeper lines and winkles."

I saw maybe 2 photos of the 20 where there was any discernable change. Maybe you can make the argument that the placebo effect boosts confidence, but I'd much rather have my confidence boosted for $10 than $80.

Maybe it's just me, but I really can't see a difference in the before/after photos of any of these examples. I get that the user might sees a difference because they're applying the product, and they surely critique their lines and wrinkles more than anyone else. But really, I don't see any changes at all in the photos!

I really hope that either the ladies lied about their age, or the person writing the article was nice to lower the number, cause those eyes/wrinkles look good 10-15 years older.
I wish each lady just had one product to test. Right eye-left eye, different light, and different facial expressions really make it impossible to tell if there's any difference at all.
So the idea is great, but the way it was brought to life can be improved
